SURVEYING THE DOVER SEA WALL

Sector Land & Rail

The damage to the wall caused undermining of the rail tracks and ultimately the closure of the line. In order to acquire detailed survey information and up-to-date aerial imagery, Cyberhawk surveyed the site using one of its multi-rotor UAV platforms.
The survey area extended to 900m along the coast and was completed within one day. Cyberhawk delivered geo-referenced orthophoto imagery at 2cm ground resolution, digital elevation model and 3D pointcloud and vector survey data with a verified level accuracy of 20mm
